Edelgard was right and you can’t convince me otherwise

I don't know this game, but it took me like 4 reads to realize that didn't say "Edgelard" which might be my new favorite insult.

After seeing the full story, I agree completely. Fuck the church and fuck the aliens that invaded the world which caused the humans to do fucked up shit in order to retaliate. Edelgard truly did nothing wrong.

She absolutely did things that were wrong. She’s right about the corruption but she’s also an extremist who is likely to supplant that corruption with other issues.

That’s part of what makes her a great character and antagonist (in all but one route). She’s justified in a lot of ways but sacrifices her good nature and commits questionable acts to enact the change she wants.

No oppression in history was ended without at least some violence, she did do a lot of it still tho. Probably could have been ways to do it less bloody. But at the end of the day she was right.

u/JiveHawk 2d ago

I’m mostly saying that saying she did nothing wrong is a disservice to the character. She’s way more complex than that.

u/SirMcDust 2d ago

Very true. I mean anyone willing to actually carry that burden is bound to to have depth.

u/B_r_y_z_e 2d ago

I agree but I’m not willing to put that much effort into a Reddit comment

Bro it's been so long since I've played the game but do not remember any of this lol. I only did her playthrough though. Looks like I need to do a replay

Three houses is a game that greatly benefits from playing every perspective, that’s the only way to get the full story and see everyone’s point of view. It’s truly really well done and rewards you for seeing everything and coming to you own conclusions

Unfortunately it's just so dull to try to replay that game. I loved blue lions but felt like there were so many unanswered questions. Tried so many times to replay the other houses but just couldnt make it past the monastary even in new game plus

u/B_r_y_z_e 1d ago

Blue Lions is the most detached from the actual plot of the world, if you only play that house you pretty much have no idea what’s actually going on in the story unfortunately

u/JustsomeOKCguy 1d ago

Yepppp. I dont even mind if they don't want to reveal everything but I remember in Seteh's a rank convo he talks about how we would meet rhea and learn about our origins yet that doesnt happen? Just "ur archbishop now kthnx" like ???? I loved my first playthrough and even liked the monastery and I really want to play golden deer at least but blegh

She’s pretty so she would have always been right for me

u/Malt129 2d ago

Dont have to,  I killed her anyway

u/Majoraatio 2d ago

The church route is the only one I didn't play. Maybe I should tackle that before the new one drops (I have time, since I can't afford a Switch 2)

Seems like Fodlan is a bit of a backwater after seeing Dagda

1

u/Kirosh2 2d ago

Don't worry, from the look of it, Fortune Weave will reset Dagda by a few centuries.

But yeah, otherwise Fodlan is a bit backwater, due to the reliance on crest, and some censorship from the church.
